If you’re only thinking “back” when you see a dumbbell pullover…there’s a lot more happening here 🔥 This is one of those moves I keep coming back to because ONE dumbbell can challenge so much of your upper body at once. Your lats are doing a lot of the work, but you’re also getting your chest, triceps + core involved as you control the dumbbell overhead and bring it back up. A few things I focus on: ➡️ Keep a slight bend in your elbows ➡️ Keep your ribs from flaring as the weight goes back ➡️ Move slowly + CONTROL the dumbbell ➡️ Only lower as far as you can while keeping good positioning And you definitely don’t need to go super heavy for these to be effective. Start lighter, get comfortable with the movement, then progressively increase your weight as you get stronger. Save this one for your next upper body workout 💪🏼 #upperbody #armworkout #backworkout #homeworkout
